About Yurie (Jamee)

Professional Korean linguist, liaison and cultural consultant. I started my linguistics career as a tutor and an instructor and have made my way up through working as a textbook writer, interpreter, translator, voice-over into the position I am in now. Full-blooded Korean, I was born in Republic of Korea - commonly known as South Korea - but was tossed back and forth from Korea to United Kingdom. From a young age, I was forced to be bilingual and forced to mend cultural gaps and balance two very different cultures. Thus something I have learnt from a very young age and gained professional knowledge on as I have worked in the industry. I have a passion for teaching and one of the services I offer as a cultural consultant is employee relocation training for businessmen and engineers.I have taught students from various backgrounds, Koreans

, Americans, Korean-Americans, Chinese from age 5 to as old as a professor in his 50s. I am able to customize the lesson to fit the needs of the student and capitalizing on my skills as a cultural consultant, am able to provide a mend in the cultural gap, and not solely on linguistics. You will find that I am an encouraging teacher, but if you do not have a desire to learn, I will not have a desire to teach.

Jamee is a great teacher and she is incredibly accommodating to not only schedule conflicts but to different learning styles. I have been tutored by her for almost a year now and I am very happy with my how far I've progressed. Her materials and lessons are easy to look back on, and her patience helps keep me encouraged.

I requested lessons for my 8 year old son. Jamee has been very helpful, supportive and responsive to his questions. She is a dedicated teacher who is good at explaining new concepts. My son has really enjoyed taking Korean from her.

About Hyojung C.

Do you want to know more about Korea and the language? I can help you. I am an experienced Korean language partner from University of Miami for college students since 2015. From beginner to intermediate, I will be your Korean conversation partner and teacher.

About Hyojung

Hello, my name is Leann Hyojung Cho.

When I was 5 years old, I started my piano training in classical and jazz piano.

I studied Jazz and Pop Piano at the Post Modern Music Dept. at the very famous Kyung Hee University (in South Korea). This is the same school that produced pop stars like Rain, Super Junior’s Kyuhyun, Primary, Big Bang’s GD and Daesung, TVXQ’s Yunho and Yoochon to name a few. Since I was in College, I’ve been teaching pop and jazz piano to a variety of students, from beginner to the experienced, at all age levels. I understand every student is not the same, so I make it a priority to adapt my teaching style to match a person’s learning style to maximize the learning session.

While providing lessons to a variety of students, I joined multiple bands and jazz groups playing various genres such as, alternative rock

, hip-hop, pop, and fusion. In these groups, I played piano concerts, played for various video projects, and also multiple studio recordings.

After I graduated with my Bachelors, I wanted to develop my music knowledge as a jazz composer. Therefore, I prepared and studied hard, and was admitted to the very competitive University of Miami Studio Jazz Writing program which is top 3 in nation for music programs. Since then, I’ve made Miami my home. In addition to playing music, I have been teaching Korean to UM students in their Direct Independent Language Studies program.

In Miami, my music creativity has grown and I have met amazing musicians. From 2011 to the present, I have arranged, composed, and continue to perform in various fields.

I believe my various experiences will help me teach you to learn the piano in any style you choose. Doesn’t matter who you are, what your experiences are, I will guide you to learn the piano, whether it be for professional reasons or recreationally.

About Ivey E.

Are you interested in all things Korean Culture such as, KPOP, Korean dramas, and movies? Learning Korean becomes addicting and surprisingly more easy with the help of Korean culture contents. I have contributed Korean-English subtitles for Viki and GomTV, and have had 3 years of experience as a translator for On Story, a Korean Broadcasting Company. With this knowledge, I have formulated a study plan that utilizes subtitles and different media contents to help read, speak, and understand Korean. Although Korean might be ranked as one of the most difficult languages, it is certainly beatable with the right tools. Shoot me a message to see if we are a great match!

About Ivey

Hey! I am a freelance translator, a research assistant, and a part-time tutor for LSATs at Varsity Tutors. I've recently graduated from Emory University and am planning to attend law school in the coming fall of 2018. As a Korean American, I have always enjoyed sharing my culture with friends and students, and am fascinated by how the "Korean Wave" has managed to bridge cultural gaps. As such, I hope to participate in these global conversations and to explore how media and technology can redefine teaching and learning via TakeLessons!

Ivey was my ESL tutor in college and later my Korean tutor. I needed to travel to Korea for an internship and she recommended the best books for conversational Korean, helped me with basic Korean skills and she even hooked me up with her friends in Korea for some cultural experience. She is a great tutor and a great person.

Aida Diaz March 8, 2018·Korean·Online

Ivey has a great sense of humor and is absolutely a delight to work with. I needed Korean lessons to prepare myself for TeachforAmerica in Korea and she made it super enjoyable with her lessons. She utilizes KDrama and Korean songs to supplement listening and conversational Korean. She even took into account some of my favorite Korean bands for supplements in the lessons. She likes to challenge you but makes it fun so it works out at the end. I would definitely recommend her. If you are a KPOP fan, she is your choice.
